L‘Summer 2022 is the season of great revivals. And if Y2K fashion goes wild with the return of the 2000s, so are the seventies they reappear more and more in the wardrobe. The strongest trend now? The crochet. Which in the summer, alongside tops, bags and dresses, takes on new forms: one above all, i trousers crochet – the ultimate must-have we didn’t know we needed.
Where we saw them

Packing them for those who are about to reach Ibiza or Mykonos is a must. The idea to wear them even in the metropolis: wear one opaque culotte in a contrasting color – black, so as not to slip into excess. L’navel, strictly visible.
